THE INTERNET AGE HAS FUELLED THE RISE OF THE EVERYDAY ENTREPRENEUR WHO HAS FOREVER CHANGED THE modern GLOBAL BUSINESS LANDSCAPE. THE IMPERATIVE FOR BUSINESSES TO DRIVE A NEW MANAGEMENT PHILOSOPHY IS PRESSING, PERHAPS LONG OVERDUE. THE AGE OF THE "INTRAPRENEUR", EMPLOYEES WHO BEHAVE LIKE ENTREPRENEURS, HAS ARRIVED. THE DIGITAL ECONOMY IS HERE. ENTREPRENEURSHIP NOT NOT RESERVED FOR START-UPS AND GARAGES IN SILICON VALLEY. ENTREPRENEURSHIP IS MANAGEMENT; YOUR MANAGEMENT

Global pioneers of the digital age have built a new blue print for business success that sees the collapse of traditional models that relied on hero-mentality individuals and management hierarchies and the rise of passionate growth mindset teams that instead shift from project to project. Agile inspired teams are reinventing the genius of creative collaboration and are ultimately creating an ecosystem that allows for an abundance of ideas to be transformed into value. Autonomy, mastery and purpose is the catchcry of the modern team worker. Teams define your culture and your culture defines your future.

The Internet Age has removed gatekeepers. Ubiquitous connectivity has disrupted the hierarchies of control. One no longer has to wait for permission to make, create, do. To lead is a choice; you can pick yourself. Leaders are not born, rather they are people who decide to step up, invest in learning, take responsibility and offer unique value. A pre-Internet age entitlement mentality will see your demise in the digital age. The employee of the future is a boss; a boss of himself. They have turned-pro, they have a voice, they work on mastering their craft, they have principles and work passionately to make a difference with their art. They live virtues of autonomy, accountability, growth and teamwork.
